ReferralCandy is overall a great tool that saves me time and money. Creating a referral program on your own is incredibly difficult and this tool allows for an automated system to send us an option to opt into the referral program. Their customer success team is very helpful and they're quick to get back to us when we have a question. We also love the ban feature when a customer abuses the referral program.

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • I think they could offer more granular control when it comes to how and when customers are emailed. For instance, one option just says "Don’t worry! We automatically stop sending reminders if your customers don’t read them". I want to worry, advertising is a delicate balance of trust with your customers and I don't want to turn them off by hitting them up too much.
  • I have no idea if this is theoretically possible, but how they track referrals (through an external site) can be blocked by adblockers. Wish there was a more local (to our website) way to track referrals.
  • It would be nice if ReferralCandy allowed basic dictionary word selection or a "bank" of messages that are the defaults for sharing on social media so that every shared message (because what customer actually changes the default message?) isn't the same.

ReferralCandy went above and beyond when it came to the initial integration of their app with our e-commerce store. They walked us through, step by step, how to install it, and then spent time helping track down a display bug that had popped up, giving us a couple free months for our trouble even!
